Encryption Advisory Services
"53% of organizations leave 1000 or more files with sensitive data open to all employees. Every employee, on average, has access to 17% of ALL files containing sensitve data at their organizations"
Data encryption scrambles data into "ciphertext" to render it unreadable to anyone without the correct decryption key or password. Done right, strong encryption solutions are a critical component of any cyber security program. When effective key management is combined with strong encryption solutions, sensitive data is protected from unauthorized access, modification, disclosure, and theft.
We leverage encryption to provide persistent data protection, assuming the other traditional controls will fail. As an encryption advisory service provider, we can make any attack on data significantly more difficult, time-consuming, and expensive, from a defensive perspective.

Organizations facing cyber security issues must understand how to maximize the full potential of encryption. Encryption Consulting’s team of experts will enable your organization to achieve its goals sooner and better than going it alone.
Our Expertise
Our specialty is delivering Assessments, Strategies, and Implementations for organizations who either lack the specialized resources or who simply value having a trusted advisor to assist them to upgrade their data security posture.
At Encryption Consulting, we have created a custom framework based on NIST 800-57, NIST 800-53 standards, FIPS and industry best practices to accelerate our client’s data protection projects.
Through our encryption advisory services, we work towards reducing your financial risk of breaches and minimizing their impact.
We focus on the most important thing to be protected - your sensitive data. As part of our services, we:
- Identify the most critical assets and create an inventory using our enterprise data discovery and classification-management programs
- Use tokenization, encryption and obfuscation to render compromised data useless
- Identify and zero-in on the most potential targets for attacks.
- Constantly monitor for data access and exfiltration at database layer and endpoints
Our encryption advisory services help to close & secure access paths through security controls like:
- Application/Field Level Encryption
- Cloud Encryption
- Database/Big Data Encryption
- File Encryption
- Disk/Media Encryption
- Key and certificate management
- Secure Email and File Transfers
Our data protection service catalog
- Data Discovery Exercise
We identify the areas across your organization where unstructured and structured sensitive data exist, by performing a data discovery exercise. We provide recommendations and suggestions to protect and manage the identified sensitive data.
- Assessment and Strategy for Data Protection
We identify the key risks faced by an organization by conducting a data protection assessment. This also helps in understanding the capability maturity and any gaps that may exist in your organization. Based on this assessment, a data protection strategy is developed, along with a roadmap that defines the components and capabilities of the data protection program.
- Data Exfiltration Risk Assessment
Through a risk-assessment, we identify the areas in your organization that are most at risk for data being exfiltrated. In order to strengthen those areas of potential risk, we provide remedial recommendations.
- Technology Solutions and Capability Implementation for Data Protection
We assist your organization with the implementation and deployment of data protection technology solutions and capabilities. We also provide support throughout the full scale technology implementation.
- Data Protection Program Foundation Development
To strengthen and enhance the data protection program, we develop supporting capabilities like governance, key risk indicators, operating model, and key performance indicators.
